Catch Starthorne has spent a lifetime running from the prophecy that names him as the one who will save the shifter race, but now that he has returned to his home in Clawcrags, he may have to face his destiny. Determined to slip through fate's fingers, Catch sows confusion, making friends from foes, mixing up the occasional sleeping death potion, and matching wits with an overbearing lion-shifter, who appears to have plans of his own. While Catch schemes, Ascot works to retrieve him with the help of a witch and a pair of madcap shifter rebels. But every attempt to reach him earns her fresh enemies and embroils her ever deeper in the conspiracies surrounding the prophecy. After five hundred years of repressed tension and social strife, the Clawcrags are ready to explode-and it sometimes seems someone's working hard to see that they do… (mehr)

Into The Moonless Night is the third book 3 in the Moonfall Mayhem series. It continues the story of Catch Starthorne who spent the last two books as the person from a prophecy which says he will save the shifter race. This book sees him returning home to Clawcrags.

I felt the romance was a little unresolved, there was a lot of potential but I felt like the two characters involved weren't together for that much of the book, and this was a little disappointing.

However, there's a lot going on in this book, lots of subplots which I enjoyed and loved seeing new and favourite characters battling with their own demons and trying to find their way. The antagonist was of particular interest to me as he really had to use his smarts more than anything as he wasn't on the same playing field as the other protagonists. The ending felt a little abrupt to me, and i wasn't sure whether that was becasue there's another book to be written but overall a good book to read and I enjoyed following the trials and tribulations of all characters.

I give this book 4.5/5 cauliflowers.

I've been waiting for this book. This is the third installment in the Moonfall Mayhem series. As what the author confided in me, this story is about Catch. The second book hinted that this story might be about him. Thanks Miss Decker! So, I'll now be able to understand what makes Catch tick and the mystery that surrounds him.

I read the second book of this series in October 2016, so it's been almost a year. This has been truly a long wait but I don't mind because this story has a lot to tell. A lot of secrets that got unearthed. Old wounds that get reopened and old rivalries that got revived. Issues that were left unresolved were tackled here and new friendships and alliances are formed also. Yes, a host of new characters which are very very interesting are introduced. New enemies have come into the light too. This book is totally still a mayhem.

As I have said, this is Catch's story. This installment would take us to the birthplace of Catch, the Clawrags and delve into his history. Our friends, in order to rescue Catch, followed his steps to his home and along the way encountered their own set of adventures. There were some references to some famous fairy tales though like the house of the witch in Hansel and Gretel. That was the most hilarious part of the story, especially with it's very eccentric homeowner and cauliflowers.

In this story, again Rags-n-Bones, Dmitri, Moony, and even Nipper, pitched in to get them to succeed in their adventures and quests. I think Rags again proved to be very impressive and he used what he had learned in Widget to help the team here. Moony also just keeps on getting funnier and wittier. I think I'd like to keep him as a pet. There would be no dull moments with him around and he's just so full of himself but in such a very cute way. Instead of being irritated because of his overconfidence, you will just be amused at his antics and witty comments. The catch the flag thing also was very fun. It's one of the highlights of the story and again, Team Ascot took the prize.

I really enjoyed this adventure although, it was slow going at first. Not a lot was happening until they got to the house of the witch. That house really cracked everything up, literally and figuratively. And then, after that, I think all hell broke loose because a lot was happening and a lot of developments were presented. I think, the last part of the book was loaded with everything. Discoveries, fireworks, and all. And again, it sets me up for the excitement for the next installment. New characters are introduced which are going to play a vital part in the story. I can't wait to know what's going to happen next. This time, I'm not sure who's going to take centerstage. I guess, if it's going to be the conclusion already, then there would be no need for that but to just tie up all the lose ends neatly and beautifully. And that includes the love angle. Hopefully.

I give this book 4.5/5 cauliflowers. The same way as avocados make the second book memorable, this story is made hilarious and unforgettable because of cauliflowers. Oh, my goodness, I'm still amused every time I remember what this vegetable is doing in this story. Just simply hilarious. I think I can still smell it while typing this review.

That was the trouble with being a dedicated liar: occasionally you fooled even yourself.

Sarcasm. It was something that just blossomed with adolescence, like spots.

This story follows directly from the end of The Meddlers of Moonshine (which I read, but didn't reread for this); Catch and his captors are on the way to the Clawcrags, with Ascot and party following as quickly as possible. I finally figured out what my problem was with the Meddlers, which was worse with this book - the first book was very cartoony, perhaps because it was aimed at YA or just a style thing. The characters were simplistic even when they went deeper. In Meddlers they were still cartoony except when flashes of real feeling sneaked out and made the cartoony style look just that, flat and simplistic. And here, there's still a thin skin of cartoony (Condorella the Very Dark Blue Shading to Violet...), but there's a lot of real feeling, emotions, and relationships (friendly and otherwise) driving the story. When I finally gave up trying to hold it to the simplistic style, it became both richer and a better book. No cartoon could contain Starley and Jolt's feelings towards Cavall, or Cavall toward Mistral, or even (a last holdout for cartoony) Bandersnatch's feelings for the Alph - forgiveness and not, seeing past the old image, accepting new truths. Lethe is mostly a very annoying distraction; he tries to set people up to be puppets, but they refuse (even the ones who are!). Some convenient coincidences, but they work within the story (though I don't understand the cat/bird shifters). Actually, I don't understand quite a bit of it and I'm perfectly all right with that. I'll reread the series in a while and see if it runs more smoothly without the assumption of the cartoon style. It does look there will be more books, though - nice setup for the next one. Heh - werewolves of Shadowvale are going to be getting something of a shock... ( )
